"Sister Xiao Yun, let us leave."

Su Mo, who had been quietly watching all this time, suddenly spoke up.

He stood up and took Yang Xiaoyun’s hand.

Yang Xiaoyun remained unwilling to move, just looking at Su Mo: "But if we leave, what about them?"

"This game, we have lost miserably, and staying here will not help the situation."

Su Mo slowly glanced at everyone present, and his gaze finally fell on Master Cangming: "Since Master Cangming is genuine, then... those fellow travelers who came with us from Yuliu Manor..."

Yang Xiaoyun’s pupils suddenly contracted, and she immediately nodded: "Let’s go."

"Hold on!"

Just as the two turned to leave, Master Cangming suddenly spoke.

"Does the Master have any further advice?"

Su Mo turned back to look at Master Cangming.

Master Cangming sighed: "Why must you two young ones be like this? Although I do not know where you heard these matters, now that I am here, I cannot let you be deceived by villains."

Having said this, he paused slightly, looking at everyone seated.

"Everyone, I have gathered such a great number from far and wide to my Xuanji Valley not to trouble these two youngsters.

"Indeed, it is because evil demons are overriding justice, which cannot be ignored.

"Though these two youngsters took bold actions that appeared reckless, aren’t they fundamentally in support of justice and righteousness within the Martial Arts world?

"While the method may be impetuous, I am reassured by it - if the younger disciples of our Righteous Path can all be like this, how could the Path of Chivalry not prosper? It also shows that Jianghu has successors!"

The words of Master Cangming instantly made everyone present sincerely convinced.

"Good, the Master truly has a generous heart."

"The old Taoist is refined and elegant, I used to be always unconvinced, but today, I truly am."

"Young Heroes, it was all a misunderstanding, just a misunderstanding."

"That’s right."

Master Cangming also nodded, picking up his teacup and saying: "It’s all a misunderstanding; this tea might be cold, but let’s use tea instead of wine, shall distance grudges with a smile, shall we?"

Su Mo’s mouth twitched, what a Master Cangming.

Such tact, truly flipping hands for clouds and turning hands for rain.

But Master Cangming didn’t wait for them to speak, "Come, everyone, let’s drink this cup."

Having said that, he took the lead and drank it all.

This way of drinking might seem a bit rough, but at this moment, it was just appropriate.

So much so that everyone present raised their cups.

Su Mo’s expression darkened, just about to speak, but suddenly froze on the spot, seemingly unable to move.

Not far behind him, a person dressed as a Xuanji Valley Disciple was standing quietly there, yet the aura enveloping Su Mo was already completely covering him.

This aura was invisible and concealed, ready to shatter the heavens and split the earth at the slightest movement from Su Mo.

Yang Xiaoyun could indeed speak, but at this moment, whatever she would say was in vain.

She watched helplessly as everyone present drank the tea in their cups, only able to let out a long sigh, resigned to her fate.

The heroes of Jianghu in the hall now also turned their gaze onto them.

And at that instant when their gaze shifted onto them, the invisible aura enveloping Su Mo also instantly vanished without a trace.

"Both young friends daring to speak up honorably, it’s admirable. Please, sit down and have a cup of tea."

"Ha ha ha, Master Cangming may have a magnanimous heart, but you need not be so stubborn. Instead, why not tell us where you heard this information? Perhaps we can find the root cause?"

"Exactly, you might have been deceived. Why not tell us what is really going on? Master Cangming is genuine; whatever you have heard is certainly false. Whoever spoke those words must be mistaken."

Everyone, one by one, seemed to have categorized Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun as naive juniors in Jianghu, who easily believe rumors and act recklessly without understanding the dangers.

Su Mo’s gaze swept across the crowd, finally resting on Master Cangming, as he sighed softly:

"Master, deceiving gods and tricking ghosts, you truly are skilled in manipulation."

With these words, everyone present suddenly fell silent.

They just looked at Su Mo, already growing impatient.

Then, one person suddenly stood up – it was Invincible Divine Fist Shangguan Xiong. He lightly slammed the table and exclaimed angrily:

"Enough, you two juniors, who knows where you heard these rumors. Master Liu from Yuliu Manor is right in front of us, yet you insist that Yuliu Manor has been overtaken by the Youquan Sect.

"Master Cangming has already proven his identity, yet you choose to ignore it.

"Such behavior is truly troublesome and unreasonable.

"Master Cangming is generous and not holding this against you two, but if you continue to persist, I will not be able to spare you. Let me teach you what rules mean!"

Su Mo, however, did not look at him, but continued to coldly stare at Master Cangming.

His gaze was as sharp as lightning, while Master Cangming simply smiled slightly and his lips parted to say:

"Such minor tricks, Lord Su, you flatter me too much."

Master Cangming’s words were not long, but to the ears of the audience, they echoed like thunder.

Everyone instinctively turned their heads towards Master Cangming.

They saw the old Taoist, who at some unknown time had begun smiling so broadly his eyes were nearly closed.

His entire face was almost distorted into a knot, with a smile that was wild, rampant, and slightly fierce.

"...Master, what do you mean by that?"

Someone murmured, asking.

"It’s nothing, nothing,"

Master Cangming just laughed heartily: "You see, today is a rare gathering, and I just happen to have a matter I’d like to discuss with everyone. What do you all think?"

Though he mentioned asking for opinions, he did not really seem to seek them, nor did he wait for a response before continuing:

"I come from the east and have been struggling in this southwest region for over twenty years, creating this minor base of Xuanji Valley.

"Today, our Sect Hierarch intends to extend his benevolence here, to bind Dongcheng between two fronts, creating a pincer movement.

"Everyone here represents the cream of Martial Arts in the southwest. If we join forces and all join the Youquan Saint Sect, we will inevitably become the fourth major power besides the Luofeng Alliance, Wusheng Hall, and Heavenly Blade Sect.

"Furthermore, based on this foundation, it would not be hard to bring the entire southwest under our control.

"After that, Netherworld Never Dries, Youming Immortal, everyone can coexist with our sect!

"But what do you all think?"

At this point, his speech has laid all his cards on the table.

Inside the Xuanji Hut, instant silence prevailed.

Some exchanged glances, some couldn’t believe it, and others were a mix of shock and anger, suddenly standing up.

But unexpectedly, as Inner Strength operated within them, they felt their True Qi stagnate, unable to circulate at all, and could only slump back down, looking angrily at Master Cangming and demanding:

"You... who exactly are you? What exactly do you want?"

"I am Cangming, Blood Order Master under the Xuehai Department Master of Youquan Sect! As for what I want?"

Master Cangming looked at him, smiled lightly: "Naturally, those who follow me prosper, those who oppose me perish!"
